Nowhere else in Chicago has.the inter-

the law are such that we would be unaoIe
to get any tickets without stealing them,
and there is law against that also, am

Another broker said: owe have no

Those we have are principally for western

that few Legitimate brokers, such as be

try to hold their places with the hope

FOREIGN.-The Week in Europe
The special excitement of the week in Eu-
ropeis the resignation of the French minis
try. The matter is not consumated, but it is
expected that M. Rouvier, lawyer and a
former member of the Chamber of Depu-
ties, will form new Cabinet. The peo-
ale are said to be greatly excited over the
resignation Of the ministry, and the prov
inces are sending requests that General
Boulanger be continued as minister OF
War.-Bismarck is Germapizing Alsace-
Lorraine, and explosions of Frenchmen
and others who make his work difficult
are constant--The strikers in the Bor-
image district, Belgium are visiting fac
tories and stopping work. The houses of
many workmsn who would not stop work
have been blown up with dynamite
Father Kellar, a young priest, of Yough-
al, who has been imprisoned in Kilmain-
ham jail for refusing to testify concern
ing the plan of campaign, has been re-
leased, the court holding that the war
rant for his arrest was illegal. The priest
was given reception on his liberation.
Mr.. Trevelyan has replied to Lord
Randolph ChurchilPs attack in the Times
Trevelyan denies that he has been incon-
sistent, and asks Churchill how he rec
onciles his opposition to the mildest CO.
ercion in 1885 with his approval of the
present bill.-It is said that Parnell fears
there is plan on foot to poison him
and that he shuns all talk about his
health. 1t is aleo asserted that he has
not been the same man since the Times
printed the forged letter. The Irish
lTationalists in Parliament say that
henceforth every opposition to the coer-
cion bill will be justified, and that the
bill will not pass the present session.

unions. The men thus far show no signs
of wavering. All building is at stand
still and it is estimated that from 10000
to 10000 men are idle. The employers
have come to an agreement to present a
united front against what they deem the
unreasonable demand of the employees,
and the existing lock out and general sus-
pension of work will, probably continue
for an indefinite period.
